its better 2 burn out, then fade away.

I admit I have the patience about as far and wide as an amoeba. And we all know we cant see those with the nekkid eye.



I fancy myself as a work in progress when it comes to patience. I try, I really do. My kids though, God bless them, make me want to make my hubbys receding hairline a little more receding..I don't much wanna pull my hair out, but I don't mind pulling someone else's out...cause I am cool like that.



Every so often my patience gets abused by other beings then my birthed kin.



Take today 4 example.



this does not happen often, but today I wanted to go to Subway and get a turkey breast sub...I was totally in the mood to eat a 6 inch on Italian Herb and Cheese bread.



it has 6 grams of fat or less, Jared says so....



Our Subway has a drive thru, and this is how I partake of such things, because damn it, when its cold who wants to actually have to get out of a nice warm vehicle?



not me for gosh by golly darn sakes.



I have Boo with me, because she is a happy retard and is only in pre school and it was not school time yet...so rather then have her sit home with the dog and unload the dishwasher, vacuum and answer the door when strangers knock, I used better judgement and brought her with.



Now as soon as we pull into the drive thru she tells me that chicken nuggets are not sold here...



no crap....



I told her I would get her some nuggets and the golden arches are right next to subway, so it was making her nervous that I passed the golden arch drive way...



I pull up to the speaker and wait for the happy minimum wage workers to ask what I wanted today.



I wait...and wait...



I finally honk my horn to get their attention..



hello, this desperate woman in the blue mini van wants to eat..hello asswipes, get your head out of the cheese slices and get your ass to the window..golldangit.



nothing..nothing..



Boo tells me to honk again..



By this time a good 7 minutes has passed, and my patience runs out at around 32 seconds.



I know if they were to take my order now, it would not be a pretty sight, and I had my baby with me, and my baby thinks I am her "blue eyed girl"...and I cant risk wrecking that.



I tell her that momma is leaving because people here aren't working today...



Just then, just as I put my car in drive...I hear...



can I take your order please



Now I could of taken the high road...I could of informed them that I had been waiting 4 some time but I understand that maybe they were busy..



BUT



I didn't.



this is more or less what transpired between me and whomever was on the receiving end of this..



oh, you want to take my order?...Well, I was ready to give u my order ten minutes ago, instead you ignored me, made me waste gas just sitting here and now you think I am going to place an order here?....hmmmm....nope, not gonna happen buddy..instead I am going to drive right by your window and wave at you...with a happy little finger..I understand you have a galloping case of the stupids today but its not my problem..and I want that on Honey Wheat Bread with NO cheese..



then I drive by the window, as its the only way to get out of said drive thru...stop, knock on the window and flip the bird..



I know, I know...I set a very bad example 4 my wee one...But she needs to learn the ropes on how to deal with asshats...and I am a damn good teacher 4 such encounters.



So we head to the golden arches so my baby can have her deep fried chicken and chocolate milk.



Cause I am a good momma.



we get to the window to pay and she says..



now momma, u need to give them money, don't knock on the window and wave, then leave my chicken here like u did your samich.



Oh my poor sweet 4 year old...
